This world-class left-back looked a fish out of water shortly after signing in at Manchester United from Monaco in the autumn of 2006, but he quickly conquered his Anglophone demons and now needs no lessons from anyone. Adventure and dynamism personified, he has the engine to dominate his flank from first minute to last. The son of a diplomat from Guinea, he was born in Senegal. After his father was posted to France, the young 'Pat' was brought up in the suburbs of Paris, where got to know a certain Thierry Henry. On failing to make the grade at Paris Saint-Germain, the teenage Evra went into exile in Italy at lower league Marsala and Monza, then returned to France to star for Nice and Monaco. Evra was an out-and-out attacker in his formative years and only became a left-back when a spate of injuries forced Nice coach Sandro Salvioni to use him in that more reserved role. He has not looked back since and played in ten of Les Bleus' 2010 World Cup qualifiers.

People on here are really strange,when looking at all the videos of the united players about who is the fastest valencia is always the one said to be the quickest but on here evra stats are higher than him when we can all see that patrice has clearly lost some speed due to his age unfortunately,lennon had always been quicker but at least before evra could still get away from him at times but now days he can't even do that,i would decrease his acceleration to 88 and his top speed to 87 as he is still quicker than ashley cole.

the killer ability of this man to pass his opposite player that can do that many time is his so fast speed by ball, his acceleration by ball is even better without ball!! and no one can get himso we should give him very high DS to simulate this style in PES so i suggest DS 89.

I feel his AGI is giving him the edge in dribbling quite often. His center of gravity is really low and easily changes direction, and together with his BB, dribbling skills and speed that makes him a great offensive thread as well.

can't see why he has such a high defense value. He doesn't look that secure defenivly, his speed seems to be much more influential to his defensive game than his actual postional sense or tackling abilities.

First and foremost, his DEF has got to go down. He's been dreadful with his defensive positioning for more than a season really. My initial idea is that it should probably be as low as 64 even. I know that's a big drop, but 65 is still a decent value for an attacking fullback. In fact I'd ideally go for a 63 I think. I'd also decrease his BB to 80 at least. He's been getting regularly beaten in physical tussles, often getting knocked down. He's simply not that strong.

His LPA could go down a point further to 75. His crossing is dreadful, and consistently so. LPS too down to 80/81. His SPA however could come up to 75/76, as his short passing game is more reliable and he plays some passes that aren't entirely basic.

I'd raise his ATT to a 78/79. He's really very, very good at getting into excellent attacking positions. His problem is that when he gets into good positions, his crossing lets him down.

I agree to the suggestions but Attack could stay the sameI think his jump value is a bit over the top, in the last time his physics aren't full developed as he used toAlso Agiltiy could go also one point down, he's getting older with the time....

Yes, I'd seriously go as low as 63 for DEF - he's not been reliable in terms of defensive positioning for a long time.

Yes, you're probably right actually Mr. Evans. I'd give him a point raise for ATT at least though. A combo of good attack but poor long passing stats will recreate him well in my opinion. It's been said to death but he gets in excellent attacking positions but doesn't have the resources to make use of them.
